Chalk, Wood and Water

 

Eric Ravilious - Chalk Paths (1935) 

This exhibition is on at the Pallant Gallery in Chichester until 23rd April 2023. It features the Sussex Downland landscape from Blake and Turner through the Bloomsbury Group and beyond. The highlights are probably early twentieth century when the style of simplified, watercolour and print landscapes best show the whale-back shapes of this unique landscape. Highlights include Edward Burra, Ivon Hitchens, Vanessa Bell, Lucien Pisarro, Graham Sutherland, Paul Nash, Gwenda Morgan, John Piper and Eileen Agar.
